schr0563 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Are there stores in the metro area that sell the tools needed to collect maple syrup? Basically looking for taps and the collection bags/buckets. Any help is appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schr0563 Posted March 23, 2009 Author Share Posted March 23, 2009 Never thought to try the home made route. Thanks for the suggestion. That will let me give it a whirl without a large investment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Aldahl Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Just remember copper is toxic to trees so remember to take it out when you are done for the season or better yet use aluminum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
